Use Cases to Scan AWS Environment

following are the use cases for scanning AWS environment:

Use Case 1 - Scanning Multiple VPCs with No Overlapping IPs

  • Need to define Asset Groups. Business Units are optional

  • When defined, business Units restrict user access to assets within their own business unit. Users in Business Unit A can’t access assets in Business Unit B.
  • Solution for when there are no overlapping IP addresses in groups AG1, AG2, AG7, AG8.

Use Case 2 - Scanning Multiple VPCs with Overlapping IPs

  • Need to define Networks, Business Units, Asset Groups.
  • Business Units restrict user access to assets within their own business unit. Users in Business Unit A can’t access assets in Business Unit B.
  • Solution for when there are overlapping IP addresses in Network A (asset groups AG1, AG2) and Network B (AG7, AG8).

     The networks can also be within the same business unit.
